Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were presented with a stunning flower arrangement during their visit to Nottingham Academy today (December 1) and we’ve got the exclusive details on the bouquet.

The arrangement was actually designed for the couple – who announced their engagement earlier this week - by The Apprentice star Elizabeth McKenna.

The florist, who owns Flowers by Susan in Southwell, revealed to us why she chose the floral design for Harry and Meghan, telling the Post that she opted for purple and white flowers to represent the school’s colour theme.

“We’ve got some forget-me-nots because I don’t want the day to be forgotten,” she added while explaining her choices for the couple, revealing that she also added some eucalyptus after discovering that Meghan once bought a bouquet featuring the plant.

Elizabeth also added spray roses, lizzie anthers and clematis to the arrangement and gave the flowers a local twist by adding some lace as a nod to the city’s tradition of lace production.

“There’s just a lovely mixture so it’s a really diffuse winter bouquet for a very cold and frosty winter morning in Nottingham,” she added, noting that she was “very proud” about the bouquet being presented to the royal couple.
